| Programme description | This one year Master of Laws programme provides a unique opportunity for lawyers to specialize in information and communication technology law. The programme encompasses telecommunications law, intellectual property law, data protection law and e-commerce law. In addition to these courses, students are required to write a thesis, specializing in selected subjects in information and communication technology law.; The principal aim of the course is to impart understanding of the central legal issues that arise as a result of developments in the use of information and communication technology (ICT). In general terms, such issues concern the ways in which ICT affects the application of existing law and existing law affects the use of ICT and the manner in which ICT functions as a regulatory mechanism in itself. The programme is offered at the Norwegian Research Center for Computers and Law, NRCCL. The NRCCL is one of the oldest and best known research institutions in this field. The center has a strong international orientation and is strongly linked to foreign research organizations. Its associates originate from countries all over the world. |
